Kaur Name Details

Kaur is a surname used by Sikh women. It is derived from the Punjabi word 'Kaur' which means 'princess'. It was introduced by Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth Sikh guru, in order to provide gender equality within the Sikh community. Sikh women use the surname 'Kaur' instead of their family name as a way to assert their independence and separate themselves from the patriarchal naming traditions of the time.
